High Above

——As expected, these anomalies were caused by Ian, Qingtong does not have this ability.

After hearing Ian's voice, Andor let out a sigh of relief. No matter what big news the boss wants to make, at least in Andor's mind, seeing Ian means safety.

Without thinking much, Andor immediately drove the armor and quickly approached the giant crystal dragon.

To an outsider, this scene looks like a brave and fearless Imperial knight driving an armor to attack the giant beast that is wreaking havoc everywhere - so loyal that all the Imperial people who saw this scene clenched their fists, fighting against the current. Respect the brave men above.

Some people even secretly remembered the serial number of this armor. They will never forget the sacrifice of this brave knight!

Then they all turned and ran.

——Are you kidding? How can researchers like them handle high-level monsters like crystal dragons, whether they mutate or riot? They are not idiots who insist on standing around and burdening the combatants. Leave professional matters to the professionals!

No one would have thought that they were actually in the same group.

"Sir, did you foresee this crisis and come here specially?"

Regarding Andor's words full of reverence, the prophet who was just on a whim was silent for a moment, and then nodded: "Yes, yes. I foresaw the crisis coming."

"But I don't know what the specific crisis is, so I need to increase my strength to deal with it."

When the crystal dragon is at the first energy level, there are three sublimation organs in the body: [Crystal Shell], [Flux Core] and [Universal Blood], which correspond to the pure source matter control ability, and have the ability to control all types of source matter. A certain affinity.

If it has been transformed into a special subspecies, the crystal shell and universal blood will automatically be transformed into the corresponding flame crystal body and golden flame blood.

In a sense, it's almost the same as Ibrahimovic.

And just now, Ian has transformed the universal blood in his body into the 'Silver Blood' that can adapt to strong electromagnetism, a body fluid that is close to liquid metal and almost superconducting under the action of source matter.

As a price, there were a dozen or so unlucky thunder-attributed monsters in the surrounding area.

Now, Ian can quickly create sublimated organs with the help of meditation methods and computing units.

However, if it were to be condensed from scratch, even Ian would have to spend a long time to successfully condense it.

Therefore, in order to speed up, he chose to use the ready-made thunder attribute source structure in other monsters to reorganize it into the parts he needed.

The unnecessary waste source structures seeped out from the surface of the crystal dragon and turned into lines on the outside of the glazed shell. These lines can better assist Ian in controlling electromagnetism.

"It feels indeed smoother than the human body."

And the moment the conversion was completed, Ian noticed that the Ether Crystal Dragon's ability to control the source material and electromagnetic effects was far more fluid than when he first created the Pioneer of Steel.

Now, his body is definitely far stronger than the Crystal Dragon, but at the same level, the Warcraft is indeed more powerful.

Not surprising. The way of sublimation is just to learn the advantages of Warcraft. In essence, it is just to make the natural abilities of Warcraft into tools for your own use. Controlling these is like using your own hands and feet, which is of course more smooth.

Unlike humans, even the body structure of Warcraft is sometimes used to better control a certain power.

Just like Ian's crystallized dragon body now, after he chose the thunder attribute as his current main attribute, he discovered that metal coils began to form from his body from beginning to end, entwined under the outer shell.

A large amount of the metal elements absorbed have been consumed, resulting in the current crystallized dragon body that is simply a moving giant magnetic storm coil, which can release frightening current at any time to turn all enemies into coke.

If it were a human being, this ability would never be learned. Even if it was learned, it would not be that strong. After all, humans do not have such a straight and long body shape unless they use tools.

"No wonder Huaiguang suggested that I 'experience' the power of a real dragon for myself..."

Ian murmured to himself: "Indeed, even if it is a first-level monster, after I personally experienced it, I felt that it was unexpectedly rewarding - if I sublimated this crystal dragon body to the third level, I am afraid that I would With experience, I can make another transformation for the Pioneer of Steel!"

More than that.

Because of the special characteristics of the Ether Crystal Dragon, Ian discovered that there is still a vacancy in his body...a vacancy specifically used to place the 'Ether Furnace'!

——The civilization of the pre-epoch has no restrictions on its creations. If the crystal dragon does not have an ether furnace, it is just an ordinary Warcraft. Compared with other Warcraft, it has no special advantages. At most, it relies on attribute specialization to be a leader in the corresponding ecological circle. Top notch local.

However, if there is an ether furnace, the crystal dragon can exert incredible power. It is the pinnacle biological battleship of the civilization of the previous era!

Ian does not have the ability to directly shape the Ether Furnace, so at least he has to wait until the crystallized dragon body reaches the fourth energy level and receive assistance from the Heart of Terra, Adebert and others in the Silver Peak Territory.

However, there is still no problem in building a high-efficiency elemental furnace core and an alchemy furnace.

And this, just like the ether furnace, requires element crystals as fuel.

"Boss, what is going on? There seems to be an entire regular army outside attacking the city, as well as a fleet of heavy artillery!"

Andor immediately opened the armor's fuel depot as soon as he got close, and handed the element crystal to the crystal dragon.

With Ian here, what kind of armor is needed? Even so, Andor was still a little frightened when he thought of the artillery scene he saw before: "After I saw someone attacking the giant city of Atlan, I immediately found an armor Drive over, preparing to see the opportunity to leave with Qingtong's body... But to be honest, the sky has been blocked by the sky armor, and it seems a little difficult to escape."

[If you still use armor at this time, aren’t you just treating yourself as a target]

Ian opened his mouth and rolled away the armor's element crystals with his tongue. At the same time, he also rolled away half of the armor's power furnace, making it crunchy.

Don't waste those precious metals.jpg

Regarding Andor's decision-making, his evaluation was that it was a bit smart, but not particularly smart.

When Andor sensed something was wrong, he didn't run away alone. Instead, he went to find Armor and prepared to lead Qingtong to break out. This was considered brave and strategic and very loyal. For this action alone, Ian didn't want to criticize him. .

However, as the empire's most important enclave in the Sea of ​​Tranquility, the Atlan Breeding Ground is heavily guarded by three fourth-level experts who take turns guarding it. If the enemy chooses to attack the breeding ground, it proves that the opponent has at least held back one of them. The strength of the fourth-level expert can also confirm that there is no emergency support force on the empire's side.

Ian actually has to take some responsibility for this - because of his arcane path, the strong men from all the forces in Terra gathered around their respective core areas to jointly discuss the future and research direction of the arcane path. .

The giant city of Atlan is no exception. Except for one who must guard it, the other two fourth-level experts who are on duty are most likely to be in the imperial capital now, making it difficult to provide quick support.

The mysterious attacker most likely knew this, so he launched a surprise attack.

Rumble…

It was probably because the artillery fire had spread to the nearby area, violent vibrations occurred, and a large amount of debris was shaken off from the dome, making the many monsters who were already very frightened even more frightened.

But no matter how frightened they were, these monsters did not dare to approach the place where Ian was now.

now,

The advancement of Warcraft and the way of human sublimation are two completely different methods. Ian discovered this when he tried to advance the crystal dragon.

The upgrade of Warcraft does not require magic potions or any additional rituals. At most, it requires some special source area assistance. What they need is to absorb a large amount of high-purity source matter and nutrients so that the blood seeds already in their bodies can continue to develop. Grow stronger and then combine into sublimated organs in the body.

Even the ascendants of the bloodline aristocracy are far behind Warcraft in this regard, because even the bloodline aristocrats occasionally need the assistance of relevant magical medicines.

But similarly, the advancement of Warcraft is very slow, because relying on natural food, it is difficult for them to obtain the various minerals and sources they need. They can only obtain supplements by devouring Warcraft of the same attribute, and Crystal Dragon is no exception.

It can be said that all monsters are essentially malnourished.

But Qingtong's body has been well taken care of, and there is no lack of nutrients at all. The blood seeds are about to bloom, which means Qingtong himself has no obvious desire to advance. Otherwise, it may soon be able to Second energy level.

From this point of view, it is actually the ether crystal that drags down the original ether crystal dragon. Because the ether crystal is too powerful, the various hardware requirements for the ether crystal dragon to advance to the second energy level have also become larger. Although it It can even fight against the hive mother beast with the power of the first level, but it is stuck here.

Of the same level of invincibility and realm suppression, the Ether Crystal Dragon chose the former.

And Ian wants both.

The slender glass dragon closed its eyes, and Andor raised his head, watching the giant beast's slow 'breathing'.

Every time he inhales, the Crystal Dragon's body lights up with streaks of lightning, and every time he exhales, a large amount of high-heat exhaust gas spurts forward like a blazing flame with dazzling electric sparks, melting the surrounding houses.

With the control brought by powerful computing power, Ian accelerated his metabolism a thousand times faster than usual, reconstructed the structure of his body, and built the 'Essence Furnace Core' and 'Biological Alchemy Furnace' within his body.

As the bio-alchemy furnace took shape, the element crystals slowly burned, releasing a large amount of pure source material. Ian then controlled this energy to strengthen his armor and other sublimation organs.

Soon, a dazzling cross-star-shaped light spot lit up in the body of the Glazed Dragon, and then the light spot settled and condensed into a pure cyan chest shell on the chest. This chest shell imitating the Pure Dust Dragon emerged. In an instant, all the metals in the surrounding houses were magnetized, suspended in the air, and then flew towards him, where they were melted by the high-energy magnetic field.

Opening his mouth, Ian swallowed the refined high-quality metal. His shell became thicker and stronger, and the keel inside his body became stronger and tougher.

Breathing after breath, strengthened by Ian's fairy soul, every time the source of essence circulates in the body, the originally fragile flesh and blood is continuously strengthened amidst the itch of growth, like a sponge that is filled with water and then frozen. Live so solidly.

One hundred breaths.

A hundred huffs and runs.

Opening six dragon eyes, Ian has upgraded the crystal dragon body to the second energy level!

The second energy level doesn't sound very strong.

However, a magical beast advanced to the second energy level in a hundred breaths just by relying on breathing and a piece of source material crystal - this is not an exaggeration to call it a miracle!

Watching this scene, Andor's eyes widened. He originally thought that he had regarded Ian as very high, but he didn't expect that he could be so high!

"Is this... the arcane path that can change the world?"

He murmured to himself: "Can I be like this in the future?"

【As long as I can do it, you can too】

Turning his head, Ian looked at Andor, his tone was calm: [It may be a little slower, but as long as the road I have walked, I can definitely walk it]

At this moment, all the high-quality rare metals in the entire cultivation area were swallowed up by Ian, while other metals that were strong but not in great demand were turned into a pair of sword wings composed of countless blades, suspended in the glass dragon's body. Behind the back, the sharp sword blade kept vibrating with the dragon's breathing, cutting the atmosphere and drawing white wind currents.

The body of the crystal dragon is like the sun, emitting dazzling light, completely illuminating the dark cultivation area.

Quetzalcoatlus, or pterosaur? If anyone else sees this metal wing made of endless electromagnetism, they will definitely be shocked. It is a perfect creature that combines the beauty of life of a powerful creature itself and the mechanical beauty of human wisdom.

[Very good, better than I imagined]

At this moment, Ian tried to mobilize the power in his body, and a crimson lightning suddenly burst out from the blade wing behind his back - it was the thunder flame caused by the spontaneous combustion of the metal blade accelerated to several times the speed of sound.

After the lightning burst, a bottomless hole appeared on the ground, and then there was a harsh explosion and the earth shook violently.

[With this power, I can protect myself even in an armored assault. Even at the third level, it may not be able to stop me]

Raising his head, Ian looked at Andor, who was still in shock, and said with a smile: [You leave with Qingtong's other body and hide next to it. I have contacted Master Gosei and Prince Carlos. Someone will be there later. Pick up and leave]

"What about you, boss?"

After coming back to his senses, Andor stared at Ian's current crystallized dragon body with almost admiration: "Are you planning to take advantage of the commotion to get more resources here? I know the empire's secret warehouse in the Atlan breeding ground. ! There are a lot of precious Warcraft materials in it!"

After all, Andor is a Canaanite Moorish pirate who has no affinity with the empire. He took advantage of the commotion to rob the warehouse as soon as he opened his mouth. It was really out of style!

[Do you think I’m here just to grab resources? 】

Ian reprimanded seriously: [I came here to verify a very important step in the future of the Arcane Path, and to prepare for going to the New World. The Empire treats me well. If possible, I will definitely watch it. Let’s see which force actually dares to raid the important place of the empire]

[Where is the warehouse? 】

"The warehouse is here..."

Andor even took out a map from his pocket. The boy even wrote down various details and key points on escaping from Atlan's breeding ground on the back of the map. He even got the password to the warehouse.

——This guy is really a talent!

Even Ian was shocked by Andor's full preparation. Andor was quite embarrassed about this: "In addition to writing novels, I also daydream about what I would do if I didn't rely on you, boss." Leaving here...it turns out it’s not possible. Without your relationship, boss, I wouldn’t have access to those confidential routes and I wouldn’t be able to escape at all.”

But this was already terrifying. Ian couldn't help but admired: [It's pretty good. The average imperial thieves and professional spies are not at your level]

[By the way, are you actually writing a novel? 】

"Yes." At this point, Andor became even more embarrassed: "It's an adventure novel based on you as the protagonist. The name is... If you don't like it, I can stop writing..."

[You should continue writing, I don’t mind] Ian shook his head. He had read the South China Sea Labyrinth Adventure Record written by Andor. It was very interesting. Andor was obviously talented in this area. If If he became a pirate if it wasn't because of his family background, he would definitely become a famous best-selling author.

But if he hadn't been a pirate, he wouldn't have had such a magnificent experience.

As for now.

[Let’s go, Andor, now it’s time for you to go to Yinfeng and enjoy the benefits of my employees]

"What about you, boss?"

[I want to test the strength of this body]

Ian controlled his wings and slowly accumulated power: [Originally I didn’t want to attract too much attention, but since someone happened to be invading, I just decided to make a big fuss]

[Stay far away, don’t be accidentally hurt by the aftermath]

soon.

As Andor looked up, the cyan glazed dragon 'fluttered its wings' upwards after accumulating power for more than ten seconds.

At this moment, amidst the violent thunder and lightning, a cyan light extended straight upward, shattering the dome of the giant city of Atlan, breaking through all obstacles like a volcanic eruption.

The cyan light indirectly reached the sky in an instant, reaching directly above the clouds, tearing apart the dark clouds in the sky outside.

Both sides of the war turned their gazes in unison, looking up with shock, confusion, confusion, and fear...

Look at the slender dragon shadow.
